I've recently purchased and played DST once with some friends and everything went off without a hitch but since then I have been unable to connect to the multiplayer server as the game will crash immediately after apparently authenticating the server password. It doesn't give an error, just crashes back to the Steam game launcher page. I have disabled Windows Firewall completely, I have disabled my AV software, there have never been mods installed on my computer or the server host. All other friends can still play just fine with each other but mine is crashing for some reason. I have updated Windows, GPU drivers, uninstalled/reinstalled the game from Steam, deleted both the Steam folder for DST and the folder in Documents, verified Steam installed files. I have also set all the graphical game options in the AMD Adrenline software to "Off" or "Default" rather than any of their "optimized" settings. I can run the game locally and play on my on computer, it just crashes when joining a server hosted on a friend's computer. Attached are some logs but if I can supply any other logs, please let me know and I'll reply with those as well. There was also no MDMP file in the BIN directory but if it's been relocated, please let me know and I'll upload that as well.

After some additional testing, I am able to join other non-password protected and mod-free games from the list, just not able to join my friend's. He started another one without password protection to see if it was an authentication problem with the password but that also crashed to desktop. I then had Friend 2 host a server and I was able to connect to that one no problem (low end PC though so can't keep server there). Tried Friend 3 with another beefier computer but Windows 10 and had the same issue with Friend 3 as with Friend 1. Friend 1 is hosting his server on a Linux OS but since I've connected to it the first time and all my friends could connect to it last time, I didn't think that would be part of it but he's going to look into giving me the server logs from his end to see if they can help point out the possible problem.
----------
Attached Friend 1's server log to see if that helps determine why game crashes when connecting to their hosted server.
Launch the game from Steam.
Open "Join a Server" option
Select the desired server and enter password if protected (ours is).
Game will attempt to connect to server and at the point where it seems that it is about to load the game, it will crash to desktop or Steam window with no error codes.
